NOVI, Mich., April 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Learning Care Group, Inc.<\/a><\/b> today announced its acquisition of Young School, six preschools serving families in Maryland in Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, and Howard Counties. Learning Care Group is the second-largest for-profit early education and childcare provider in North America.<\/p>\n

The Young School brand joins Everbrook Academy, Montessori Unlimited, Childtime, La Petite Academy, The Children\u2019s Courtyard, Tutor Time, Creative Kids Learning Centers, Pathways Learning Academy, and U-GRO Learning Centres in the Learning Care Group portfolio, which includes more than 950 school locations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith its highly regarded curricular approach, its engaging learning environment, its nurturing educators and their strong commitment to health and safety, Young School is a welcome and well-suited addition to our Learning Care Group family,\u201d said Mark Bierley, CEO, Learning Care Group. \u201cWe look forward to inspiring young learners and continuing Young School\u2019s tradition of excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Young School\u2019s philosophy is influenced by the internationally acclaimed Reggio Emilia and Resources for Infant Educarers (RIE) approaches to early childhood education. The school pioneered the cottage learning environment, in which children are active participants and learners within a nurturing community. In keeping with the Reggio philosophy, the physical environment itself is a key component of the program, providing rich opportunities for independent exploration and learning, fostering a child\u2019s sense of competence and self-esteem.<\/p>\n

The Young School program engages children\u2019s enormous potential and natural curiosity. It provides a thoughtful school experience that fosters creativity, independence, and social confidence in a dynamic, joyful setting that\u2019s respectful of each child\u2019s distinct individual needs. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a privilege to serve families in our Young School learning community for more than 30 years by offering the finest care and early education,\u201d said Josh Young, founder and former President of Young School. \u201cI\u2019m confident that under Learning Care Group\u2019s leadership, Young School will continue to make a profound positive difference in the future of young children for many years to come while instilling a lifelong love of learning.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Young School experience has engaged, empowered and inspired children for decades through our culture of respect, guided by a strong image of the child,\u201d said Jo Ann Young, Young School founder. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to seeing that legacy continue under Learning Care Group, bringing children joy each day while helping them to thrive and achieve their full potential.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
